I am fascinated by people; the differences and the similarities that make us who we are

I have been motivated for the last 27 years by a desire to understand the term ‘stress’; what it means to each individual and how they are affected by it. My experience as a Massage Therapist has shown how individual our reactions are to stress and how deeply the body can be affected.

Aerodynamic Yoga was inspired by watching how sports people deal with stress. Their constant struggles and striving to achieve and to be better, the trials and tribulations they face when having to cope publicly with disappointments. Due to watching Formula One since 2007 I have learnt about aerodynamics, drag reduction and energy efficiency.

I had a ‘eureka’ moment when I discovered that my yoga practice was essentially concerned with drag reduction!

I studied massage and reflexology in London (ITEC 1991) and lived and practiced there until 2004 when I decided to move to Spain (Catalunya). I continued to massage whilst learning Spanish and in 2007/08 I studied Dynamic Yoga in Barcelona (EYA). Spain was fun but I really missed England! I returned to Southampton in May 2012 with my massage couch, an inspired mind and my Spanish dog Cato.

Since we’ve been back I’ve managed to put my ideas into action and founded both Aerodynamic Yoga and Target Health Group. We moved into our studio on Bedford Place in central Southampton in August 2014 and everyone loves it there! I’m really enjoying meeting new people and facing the challenges I set myself. Cato loves the change in the seasons, the existence of squirrels and basically being a celebrity in the City!

We’re both very happy to be here!

For a long time, I have struggled to fit my yoga practice into my schedule; working as a nurse means that no two weeks are ever the same. After 5 years of practising with DVDs alongside the occasional drop in yoga session, I realised that my progression was limited. It was time to take it to the next level!

In October 2015, I travelled to Thailand to take part in a month long intensive Yoga Teacher Training course with All Yoga. During this time I studied three forms of yoga. The first of these is the traditional form of yoga called Ashtanga which refers to “the eight limbs of yoga”. It involves synchronising a dynamic and flowing sequence of progressive postures with your breathing that in time evolves into a moving meditation.
The second form of yoga is a variation of Ashtanga called Rocket yoga. This style is fast flowing and fun as you are encouraged to play with the postures and find your own interpretation which in turn promotes creativity and confidence in practice.
Lastly, I studied Yin Yoga which is a gentler, passive and incredibly therapeutic style of yoga.
With 7 years of nursing experience, I am deeply grounded in holistic care and I bring with me a deep understanding of physiology and well-being.

In my spare time I am a competitive power-lifter and enjoy rock climbing, cycling and cooking. I look forward to getting the chance to meet new people and teach you the joys of yoga!
